Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Pineland, FL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Pineland offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
